The 38 Best Restaurants in Phoenix | Eater Phoenix
"Set in a historic bungalow in Roosevelt Row, Sunny and Alex Martin’s charming Thai eatery bears no resemblance to formulaic, Americanized Thai restaurants. Here, Sunny — who grew up in Northern Chiang Rai and borrowed recipes from family members — hand-pounds Thai red chiles to make curry and squeezes her own coconut milk rather than opening a can. The menu, which also features the seafood dishes of Thailand’s Moklen community, is universally wonderful, but don’t miss these: excellent Thai-influenced cocktails; yam mamuang boran (green mango salad with hand-torn shrimp); sai ua (charcoal-grilled sausage); and kaeng phet charinda (coconut beef curry with eggplant). Hot tip: Northern Thai dishes built from family recipes and heirloom ingredients — book a month out to lock in your table." - McConnell Quinn
